The FAQ is real!! All the nerfs

Recommended Posts

This is the greatest thing ever, and this is coming from a Rebels player. Finally the stupid toilet bowl ships that DOMINATED the meta for years are nerfed down to reasonable.

Genius has been nipped in the butt and that + Advanced slam has given hope back to aces again in a bomb world.

And as much as I liked flying Biggs with my Ghost, the Rebel Jank was too much and really spoiled the game so happy that is done too, and as others have said maybe we will get an X-wing title one day soon? The last remaining pack being a Rouge One Aces to make the lousy and lackluster U-wing and X-Wing not garbage

So true, every word of it. I play all factions, but mostly Rebels nowadays. The Biggs nerf hurts a bit, but finally the T-65 might get some real help. I mean look at what they did to the Kihraxz. Massive changes with the title, that might now even make it viable after the big 4 or 5 of lists have been nerfed. The T-65 can now have a similar treatment.

And while i enjoyed rebel bomb lists a lot, i am happy because now i might be able to pilot some rebel or imperial aces again and stand a chance!

I personally think the JM5K nerf is a bit too much. The title should give the taken upgrade slots back. 1 well kitted-out Dengar is tough but not unbeatable.

The rest is fine... I even like how Biggs' ability became thematic. He took the bullet for his friend when he had to, not all **** times. I'd like to see the coming X-Wing fix finally giving an EPT to him.

well, biggs probably got slammed the absolute hardest. Once per game? Ouch...and he can still be ignored by munitions. Yup, biggs is gone for good.

And am i seeing things, or is there no mention about the Punishing One title adding any icons back? Oooook....so the jm5k lost 2 torps and the mech. 2torps big deal i see Dengar w/o torps all the dang time anyway but no mech? OUCH

The proper sequence of events when using this card is as follows: if the ship attacks with its primary weapon from its primary firing arc it can choose to roll an additional attack die; if it does not roll an additional attack die, it may perform an attack from its auxiliary firing arc. Therefore, if a ship begins by attacking with its primary weapon from its auxiliary firing arc, it cannot use the effect of Special Ops Training.

Does this mean I can't shoot two dice out the back, and then shoot two dice out the front? What if I really want that focus token for the aft shot, so I want to try that shot first? If I am understanding that correctly, I guess it's not a big deal.
